Nobody likes to harp on about the stereotypes attached to a city when describing it, but it's hard not to when talking about Munich. The Bavarian capital is birthplace of the beer hall where men and women decked in lederhosen line larger than life beers in front of thirsty tourists to the sound of traditional oompah bands. But there is a lot more to the city than that. Munich gets increasingly cosmopolitan every year and it has one of the best selections of museums in Germany. This is why it now rivals Berlin as the most popular city in Germany with travellers.

Insider Tip:Go to Fussen and check the Neuschwanstein there. It's no more than 2 hours from Munich and totally worth a visit.
Floating down the river in the Engish Garden may have been the best part of my entire Eurotrip. Sooo fun. Street musicians here are really good so we spent some time listening to them in Marian Platz. Dachau concentration camp isn't far and is definitely worth a visit. Hofbrauhaus and Weisses Brauhaus were good spots for beer and traditional Bavarian cuisine.
Insider Tip:Get wiener schnitzel at Hofbrauhaus, and Schweinsbraten at Weisses Brauhaus. Go to the English Garden, and also every beer garden you can find!
Had tons of fun, Munich's a beautiful place to be at. BMW museum is a relatively good place to go if into cars. Went for both tours - The plant tour is definitely worth going for. Weld tour - not so much.
Insider Tip:Definitely try the food and atmosphere at Augustiner Keller, you won't regret it. We tried the schnitzel and roast duck. Both incredibly delicious meals. The beer they had was ok, but the Bavarian food provided by the restaurant is definitely worth the trip. Augustiner Keller's Biergarten is... massive but the food is definitely better at the restaurant. Hofbrauhaus is over-rated. But just for the feel of it, it's worth a visit if only for their beer. Food is so-so. Day trips to Fussen and Salzbur
